July 4th Parades


Recommended Posts

I stand corrected. I’m glad corps still do 4th of July parades. I would also like to apologize for breaking the internet rule of never admitting you’re wrong about something. I’ll try to do better.

Blue Stars were in three parades today. 

Cavaliers too, three in the Chicago area. 

Some parades pay almost as much as DCI performances, so two or three in one day affords several days of not having to do shows.

How much will a corps make marching a parade? I see some corps marching in two or three parades today. 

Cities get corporate sponsors  to cover their parade costs.  $ 3,000 is the average per parade plus one night housing. Corps don;t need practise facilities so many stay in fitness centers etc and shower at pool locker rooms.

Seems like The Cadets were in the Bristol, RI July 4 Parade today.

The Wife loved this parade when she volunteered.

I'm willing to bet that next year's Cadets would be more comfortable in next year's parades if they used this year's field costumes.
